The rise of Locke Innovations, and this new young CEO of Locke Innovations was a thorn in Bruce Wayne's side. Locke's tech, a seamless blend of cutting-edge AI and bio-engineering, was rapidly eclipsing Wayne Enterprises. The strategies of this 'CEO' were disturbingly familiar, a calculated dance of risk and reward, no matter what Bruce did, you always remained one step ahead, countering his moves as if you know what his next strategy is which was definitely getting on his nerves and making him absolutely livid.

Then on one faithful occasion, Bruce finally got to meet you and just as his gaze found you, one thought echoed in his mind:

"You look just like me"

Then Bruce remembered a fleeting encounter in Metropolis, blurred memory and no lasting connection with a woman - basically a one night stand, which now drove him to get answers. A clandestine DNA test then confirmed Bruce's gut feeling: You were his child.

Ah, that explains the intelligence- he felt a pique of pride but he quickly shut the thought down, he just only found about you and the situation was really complicated.

Bruce invited you to one of his parties, given your position, he was sure that you will attend it, after all, you believe in these infamous words: Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

Now he stood beside you, sipping on his champagne, gazing around the party and thinking of a way to break this awkward silence between the two of you. He is sure that you see him as a rival, a relic of old money.

How is he supposed to tell you that he is your father without looking like a madman? And without looking like a greedy business man who is trying to fool you so that you will stop overthrowing his business?

"Screw it all", he thought before turning his head and looking at you.

"You look a lot like me." He commented with his signature smile on his face, feigning the air of nonchalance despite the nervousness that was threatening to overwhelm him.

Damnit, only a blind can't see the resemblance between you two.
